CGiii Comment

Agonisingly slooow.

It's all about, unsurprisingly, desire and bonking...and, more bonking in atmospheric rooms with little or no dialogue.

The director just wanted to make pretty pictures with bum cheeks - on this level, he succeeded.

It may be about being loveless...but, it turned out to be thankless.
